| Abstract | The nonlinear behavior of the filter-type Maximum Entropy Method (MEM) was investigated from a theoretical and a practical point of view. The integrated intensity of the output spectral lines of MEM was probed as a function of the input intensity pattern, the filter length, and the S/N ratio of the input spectrum. The nonlinear behavior of MEM has been explained and the results compared with those derived by another method, LOMEP (Lineshape Optimized Maximum Entropy linear Prediction). The study was carried out with the aim of resolution enhancement of spectra that have high signal-to-noise ratio. |
